Fix Your Immature Squat Using Bands

Need to improve your squat control? Need a drill to fix the immature squat? The use of bands to provide tactile cues can rapidly change an athlete’s squat. For an athlete with valgus collapse problems (knees caving in) place the band around his knees and tell him to spread the band. For someone not sitting back when they squat, a band behind his hips will cue him to move posteriorly and correctly. For athletes with difficulty keeping their chests upright, a band around the arms will provide feedback to get them better positioned. Exercise Library
